Brief
History of Kona Christian Church:
Kona
Christian Church is a Charismatic church that was started on
March 18,
1999 by Pastors Roy and Marcialee Gomes. The fellowship first
met in
the home of Pastors Roy and Marcialee and later moved to the Kaahumanu
Plaza in Kailua-Kona. The church has since grown and we have
moved
twice and now are located in our new facility on Kaiwi Street. Kona
Christian Church also has 4 Rhema grads
in its body and 4 currently
enrolled and is always supporting those who
wish to attend Rhema Bible
Training Center.
What to Expect:
We know that your first time to a new church can be a little
uncomfortable, especially for your kids. So here's a few
clues as
to what you can expect...
Will I get lost?
Directions can be found on our home page by simply clicking the
directions link. Once you arrive, you will be greeted warmly
with
a hand shake or hug and the greeter will direct you to find a seat and
explain a little about the children's ministry.
How should I dress?
Come in jeans and a t-shirt, or wear a 3 piece suit, whatever is
comfortable to you. We are more concerned that you are
dressed
for success on the inside. Keep in mind that our facility has
air conditioning and can get a little cool.
What is the music like?
Our praise and worship is not the traditional organ and choir that some
may be used to. Our music is contemporary and upbeat similar
to
something you might here on your local Christian radio
station.
No matter what the style, our focus is on His presence.
What are the messages like?
Pastor Roy and Marcialee aims their messages to be relevant and
applicable for everyday life. Inspired, passionate,
creative, informative, and spirit filled in about 60 minutes.
What about my kids?
Your kids will have a blast in our Children's Church! They participate
in the main service for praise and worship and then head
out. Games, crafts, snacks and of course a bible
lesson are
included.
What about my baby?
You are more than welcome to keep your baby with you in service or take
advantage of our nursery area where you can allow your baby to play
with toys or nurse your baby while you watch and listen to the service.
Who will be working with my children?
We carefully screen and check all volunteers that work with the
children. We have a great team of loving and caring
volunteers
(Mostly Mothers) to take care of your children so you can have peace of
mind while in service.
What about my teenager?
Students ages 12 and older participate in our main service.
